For many daycare and preschool educators circle time feels like a MUST.
We’ve been taught that this is when children learn.
So every day you gather your kids around and recite the alphabet, days of the week, weather, numbers, colors, songs…
And you’ve always done that, just like most of the other educators and classrooms you’ve seen.
Except now, circle time is getting harder and harder.
>>> No one wants to join
>>> You’re spending most of the time redirecting and trying to keep the children engaged
>>> and it feels like an uphill battle just trying to make the kids stay seated, much less learn.
You’re stressed, the kids are stressed. Everyone is stressed.
But what if we looked at circle time differently?
You might have been hearing some buzz about developmentally appropriate practices and using play to teach and you’re curious…
“Could that actually work for me and my classroom?”
What does that actually look like in practice and how would kids learn without these circle time lessons?
Let’s find out!
In this free, on-demand training I discuss the basics of play-based learning and reevaluate common circle time practices.
If you’re stressed with all the demands of circle time, behavior challenges in your classroom, and the pressure of having kids “kinder ready” weighing on you, you don’t want to miss this training.
